NDC Student Arrested For Threatening To Burn Down The Supreme Court On WhatsApp

News circulating on social media reveals that a 33-year-old Emergency Nursing student at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Simon Awini Ayamga has been arrested by the Police for supposedly threatening to burn down the Supreme Court.

He issued the threat in a WhatsApp group chat about the pending Supreme Court ruling on whether Electoral Commission Chair, Jean Mensa should mount the witness box or not. The group is called POLITICS AND GOVERNANCE.

A copy of the WhatsApp chat, available to online portals indicates a member of the group posted a message saying that “1. Pre-trial interrogatories – DENIED”; “2. Inspection of witness documents – DENIED,” and that triggered the threat from Simon Ayamga who wrote that they will burn down the Supreme Court if Jean Mensa is not allowed to testify.

His exact words were “Then we will burn down that place call the Supreme Court…They dare not say Jean Mensah should not enter the witness box.”
